Gallup: On House Democrats' Big Day, Trump's Approval Improves, Majority Opposes Impeachment
Townhall.com ^ | December 18, 2019 | Guy Benson

The House of Representatives is currently debating articles of impeachment against the President of the United States. As we knew would be the case from the moment Speaker Pelosi made this move, the Democratic majority has the votes. It's a fait accompli. But as we discussed recently, something that has changed since Pelosi and friends' announcement of the impeachment inquiry is the state of public opinion. Support for the inquiry -- and, indeed, for impeachment and removal -- spiked "into the black" for awhile, having been deep in the red at the conclusion of the Mueller investigation. The Ukraine matter was different and serious. But as the process has dragged on, including nationally-televised hearings, the electorate's openness to impeachment has faded.

Should we not interpret “Trump’s approval increasing” during this as “Rejection of Democrats increasing.” And why is it not reported that way?

Clinton had a 70% approval during his impeachment, having the support of the media.
Considering Trump is opposed by the media, his numbers are awful good though.

The holding tactic would be to label Trump as "impeached" while they continue to dig make up more information to incriminate Trump.

This will be better than having a Senate trial. Let the insane House Dems ride this right to election day.

“...putting a cloud over Trump’s head.”

This doesn’t stain Trump, but it does stain the United States of America. That stain will be here for awhile.

Message from Washington DC today:

We don’t care what you, the people, think. Your vote is meaningless. You people out there can just drop dead.

Democrats can hold it up for all I care. They’re the Ahab of the 21st Century in pursuit of White Whale Trump.

And they’re maddened they can’t harpoon him into oblivion.

You wrote “look out”. For what? You’re either a squirrel or you don’t have an answer or both.

Good to see the President's in Michigan tonight. IMO his campaign strategy should concentrate on FL,NC,PA,MI,WI and IA. My hunch is that Ohio is safe given his huge margin in ‘16.
